The News From Stanley.

ST. PAUL DEl,ANDA, October O.
According TO tine last news received at
Bona, from the upper Congo, Stanley
was pushing forward, and the only dit-
ficulties he met with were natural OBJ
stacles of the country.
About July 25th the expedition had
ascended the Aruwhimi to the elevated
country belonging to the Mabodi dis
trict. The river becoming too narrow,
they left the RATS, and the men for sew
eral days had to carry double burden
OF provisions. The steel whale boat was
carried past the narrows. and again
launched. Stanley calculated that,
upon arriving at the summit OF the table
lands, giving shape to the basin of the
Aruwhimi, the expedition would halt
two days for rest, and would establish
camp there to be garrisoned by twenty
men with European officer. The dis
tricts traversed were tranquil, and little
difficulty was experienced in obtaining
provisions from the natives. The pro-
gress of the expedition averaged twenty
Eilometers daily. Tippoo Tib, in his
last message, wrote that he was still at
his post, at Stanley Falls, awaiting REIN
foreements. He had gained tine good
will OF several neighboring chiefs.
Owing to the disturbed state Of the
country Tippoo Tibi could not, as he
had agreed to, organize a revictual,ng
caravan to dispatch direct to Albert
Mama, but he intended to do so as soon
as possible. Disquict continued between
Stanley Falls and the confluence OF the
Aruwhimi and the Congo, and many
villages had been pillaged. 1t is be-
lieved that the garrison which Stanley
left at Yalbounga, has been forced to
interfere to maintain order in the neigh
borhood.

lature from Greene County, shot and in
stantly killed young man named Will
liam Ward, son OF Betsy Ward. OF the
Women's Crusade. The trouble grew
out Of a speech made by Millburn at
Greenvile a week ago. He stated in
his speech that Betsy was whiskey
seller and Jail bird, and that another sa-
loon keeper was an ex-penitentiary con-
vict. Young Ward took the remark as
an insult to his mother, and it is said,
threatened ito kill Millburn. Millburn
armed himself and waired for an attack,
which came to-lay. Ward called Milburn
a liar, whereupon Millburn reached for
his pocket and pulled his pistol, shoot
ing Ward through the left breast. Mill
burn surrendered himself.
